Also called Shaman Stones, Mochi Marbles, Moqui Balls ©, Maqui Marbles, these fascinating brown spheres have been used for contact with the extra terrestrial, for visioning, and for journeying. Moqui Marbles were sacred among the shamanic members of ancient tribes.

According to Melody in Love is in the Earth, “These iron and sandstone concretions come from the Southwestern area of the US. They are said to be named after a tribe of Native Americans who lived in the area of the Moqui Desert and used them in gaming—a game similar to marbles. Moqui Marbles need no special care—they are lovely to hold and act to protect when placed in ones environment. They adapt to all environments, the energ being like a ‘good friend’.  Manifested by nature, enjoyed by mankind, the Moqui Ball brings the synthesis of male/female, duality, and the actualization of singularity, allowing on to recognize and to understand the self, and the independence and liberty of ones nature.

Moqui Balls can be used to align the energy centers, to relieve blockages, to stimulate the CHI, to ground and center, and to provide protection. The journey with the Moqui allows one to live to the fullest while understanding the sanctity of, and performing healing for, the Earth. In addition, they bring feelings to surface such that one recognizes impositions and encroachments upon self and assists one in activating a ‘non-selfless-ness’."
